A Brief History of The Napier Company:Originally founded as Whitney and Rice in 1875 in North Attleboro, Massachusetts. At that time the company specialized in silver products, such as silver watch chains for men. Later, the company became Carpenter and Bliss, then the E.A. Bliss Company. In 1890 the company expanded and moved to Meriden, Connecticut. During the World War I years, jewelry production was suspended as the company manufactured war-related products, such as medals and medallions.After the war the company focused on producing jewelry. James H. Napier became the company's president and the company was renamed to the Napier Bliss Company. In 1922 the name was changed to The Napier Company. James Napier continued as head of the company until 1960. In 1999 the company was purchased by Victoria and Company, which closed the plant in 1999. Napier jewelry is still produced today overseas as part of the Jones Apparel Group.In-depth Item Information:This bracelet was a gift to this soldier by his parents, as noted on the underside. It weighs 56.5g! I have worn it briefly, to test function of the latch. It is loose, but it still holds. I am not responsible for any 'tweaking' damage in attempt to tighten the latch, if you choose to actually wear this item.This listing is JUST for the bracelet!Other Info:Feel free to visit my store
